Recommended Settings

Invite a member of the Tech Team to be an “Owner” of your site. This makes it easier for tech support to help you with any design issues.

Settings -> Manage Site -> sharing and Permissions -> who has access -> Invite People -> enter the email address of one of the Tech Team members and change “Can Edit” to “Is owner”. There can be multiple site owners. You are not giving up ownership of your site.

Depending on the page template you are using, you may also need to make this change on each page of your site. Gear icon -> Page Settings -> Allow Attachments -> uncheck box AND Allow Comments -> uncheck box.

Remember to email the site link to tech support so they can post the link on the school website.
